Bubble tea
Posted: 07 Aug 2014, 08:55I've never heard of this, but can't say I fancy it. I once went for supper with a Muslim colleague's family, when they broke their day's Ramadan fast, & they gave us a drink like frogspawn,it was bright blue, which looks similar. Supper was delicious, but can't say the same for the drink!!lol
Four years ago bubble tea was relatively unknown in the UK, but the drinks are now ubiquitous on High Streets, from cities to small towns, writes Lucy Townsend.
It is often brightly coloured, sometimes served with milk, with a layer of jelly-like globules - tapioca balls - that settle at the bottom of the cup. Drunk through an extra thick straw with a spoon-shaped tip, it is a mouthful of tea and chewiness - both a drink and a snack
